This week I have finished several little odds and ends.... even a couple Christmas gifts!
The vintage quilts I purchased last year, sight unseen... $50 each. Not worth the money, they are stained and the edges were worn and unraveling. The lady and husband were out of work, and I'm a sucker for helping people during Christmas.
So $100 later... So I'm keeping them for myself, they aren't the cutest, but they will be loved.

Love that design in the vintage quilt. Anyone know the name of the pattern? It's so pretty I'd like to make one if I can find the pattern.

I think you have some exceptional vintage quilts ....especially second one!
Would advise to finish them if needed, and keep.

Those are all beautiful. I love the vintage quilts. They have a good home now. Great job on the pillows. Thanks for sharing.

Personally, I think both you and the selling couple have been blessed by these quilts. The second one is rather unique, a creative, artistic endeavor.
